Tail end of blizzard. 2.09.14

Raised Bed Garden in Snow

Row Cover did not hold up in snow.
 We were able to get to Battleground today.  Some road challenges but overall OK.

Raised bed garden is blanked in snow.

The repaired low tunnel collapsed again.  I used row cover, thinking that would allow drainage.  I did not account for snow.  So I will need a different plan.

The red twig dogwoods are bright against the snow.

The plum buds look OK.  It's not the snow that concerns me with those, but the harder freeze last week.

Snow! 2.06.14

Front View 2/6/13
First big snow of the winter.  It's been snowing all day.  We could not make it to Battleground today to check on things.  I think it will be ok.

Yesterday felt bitter cold, but was only into 20s.  I am not so rugged any more.

This is prediction from WeatherUnderground.com.  It's been mild for most of Jan.  Many trees have small buds.  Some major freezing expected.
